Honestly, I think triple-refined butane is triple-refined butane. Although a bottle will last a long time, so why not spend an extra buck or two on it.

Re: Butane Refill Fuel

Since the spontaneous implosion of Colibri, I've been buying Xikar juice (same stuff). It comes with those handy-dandy, multi-nipple purging wheels, which work much better than the blade that came with my Nibo

Gary,

Ten lighters?? You expecting an ice age?

FYI. I used the triple-refined Colibri and it worked but I had lighter problems with my 2 lighters. I bought some of the Vector fuel (refined 5 times) and the problems have gone away. The level of fuel refinement really does make a difference....

I have had the same exact experience.

I have had the exact same experience. CI has the vector 2-packs for about $11 I think. And they are huge cans too.

Re: Butane Refill Fuel

Get rid of those high $$ lighters and get a cheap Ronson from Walmart for a couple of bucks. Then you can use any cheap butane refill. I have had less problems with the Ronsons than any other lighter. I buy them 3 at a time cause I keep losing them (or people keep stealing them-LOL)

Ronson Jet-Lite + Ronson cheapo fuel = No problems for the past 3 years.
